My peppers have barely grown in 2 months. The first one looks happier than the other 3 but is still barely growing. The leaves keep turning purple/brown on the tips, then yellow, then fall off. I fertilized with the one pictured maybe 3 weeks ago. But with being in zone 6a I’m not even sure I have enough time for them to grow :/

    The bed looks wet and peppers don’t like constant moisture. Given their proximity to and pretty happy looking cucurbit vine I’d say you have a moisture problem not a nutrient problem.

    I have peppers growing slowly like that as well. Last year, I let a pepper plant like that grow out, and it produced small peppers. I say don’t give up. Or get rid of the weakest.

    Yup. Not enough time left in your zone. Looks like they got stunted by cold nights yearly on.
